The threatened species categories used in Red Data Books and Red Lists have been in place for almost 30 years. The IUCN Red List Categories and Criteria provide an easily and widely understood system for classifying species at high risk of global extinction, so as to focus attention on conservation measures designed to protect them.
This document recounts the authors’ experience in participatory conservation processes that seek terrestrial biodiversity connectivity. It synthesizes at least a decade of research and practice. Its documentation of this experience hopefully can contribute to the conservation and restoration of ecological connectivity in other parts of Latin America and the world.
Jusqu’à récemment, les conservationnistes se préoccupaient peu des aires protégées urbaines. Il faut défendre ces lieux et s’efforcer de créer de nouveaux espaces naturels au sein du tissu urbain, y compris dans les centres-villes.
This document sets forth SSC guiding principles on the creation of proxies for extinct species as a potential conservation tool to restore biological diversity, to enhance ecosystem stability and resilience, and to engage in meaningful dialogue with the public about the role of proxy creation for conservation.
Kombinasi ancaman yang saat ini dihadapi kera besar yang tersisa membutuhkan tindakan konservasi yang segera di semua bidang - dari inisiatif di tingkat lapangan, melalui strategi nasional dan regional, hingga ke konvensi dan rencana aksi internasional. Dokumen ini menguraikan pendekatan saat ini untuk survei dan pemantauan kera besar bagi para ahli biologi lapangan, para manajer kawasan lindung, departemen satwa liar pemerintah dan masyarakat konservasi pada umumnya.
Re-introduction is one tool for conserving great apes and their natural habitats. These guidelines adapt other IUCN documents to pertain specifically to the re-introduction of great apes.
As habitats and ecosystems become increasingly altered and populations evermore impacted by human activities, a growing number of species will require some form of management of both individuals and populations to ensure their survival. Ex situ management is one possible option that can contribute to the conservation of threatened species.
La Liste Rouge des Écosystèmes de l’UICN est un nouveau cadre mondial pour surveiller l’état des écosystèmes. Elle fait partie d’une boîte à outils toujours en expansion qui sert à évaluer les risques encourus par la biodiversité et qui a pour but de servir d’appui aux politiques de conservation de la nature, à l’utilisation des ressources naturelles et aux décisions managériales en identifiant les écosystèmes qui présentent un risque élevé de perte de biodiversité.
La Lista Roja de Ecosistemas de UICN es un nuevo marco global para monitorear el estatus de los ecosistemas.
